Job Title: Electronics Engineer

Location: Rugby, Warwickshire
Salary: £48,000 - £58,000 + Benefits (including 5% annual bonus)

KO2's client is looking for an experienced Electronics Engineer to join their product development team in Rugby. This is a hands-on role covering the full product lifecycle — from schematic design and component selection through to PCB layout, firmware development, prototype testing, and production support.

You'll be working on innovative electronic solutions from concept through to production, combining strong analogue/digital hardware design skills with embedded C/C++ firmware development. This is a great opportunity for an engineer who enjoys ownership of a project end-to-end, working closely with suppliers, the wider development team, and production.

What you'll be doing:

  • Designing innovative electronic solutions, including full lifecycle work from schematic and component selection through to PCB layout and prototype testing, in line with design specifications
  • Developing embedded C/C++ firmware for PIC, NXP or similar microcontrollers, including examining and understanding existing deployed firmware to provide bug fixes with minimal risk
  • Documenting technical solutions and processes, including capturing requirements for new product developments and generating in-depth specifications from minimal source material
  • Managing BOM data for new and existing products within the ERP system
  • Proving functional design across both firmware and hardware, including designing and implementing production testing solutions (production tester firmware/software and hardware rigs)
  • Contributing to Safety/EMC compliance activities as part of product testing and certification
  • Coordinating with the development team and liaising with suppliers to transfer solutions into production

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
